Description
The PH 5 Mini is a scaled-down version of the PH 5 pendant, using the same three-shade anti-glare system Poul Henningsen developed in 1958. At a smaller diameter it is suited to lower ceilings and more compact spaces, and multiple units can be grouped together for larger rooms. The small red anti-glare ring at the bottom catches residual glare. Available in painted metal and glass versions in multiple colours. Designed by Poul Henningsen; produced by Louis Poulsen.

Designer
Poul Henningsen
Denmark, 1894 - 1967
“All political art is bad – all good art is political.” - Poul Henningsen
Poul Henningsen was a Danish author, architect and critic, one of the leading figures of the cultural life of Denmark between the World Wars. In Denmark, he is often referred to as PH. Poul Henningsen was the illegitimate son of author Agnes Henningsen and satirist Carl Ewald. He spent a happy childhood in a tolerant and modern home in Ordrup which was often visited by the leading literates. Between 1911 and 1917 he was educated as an architect, but he never graduated and tried himself as an inventor and painter.
His most valuable contribution to design was in the field of lighting. He designed the PH-lamp in 1925, which, like his later designs, used carefully analyzed reflecting and baffling of the light rays from the bulb to achieve glare-free and uniform illumination. His light fixtures were manufactured by Louis Poulsen. His best-known models are the PH Artichoke and PH 5. The lamps created the economic foundation of his later work.
Other notable designs include the PH Grand Piano which is included in several notable 20th-century design collections, including that of the Metropolitan Museum in New York City. He also designed Glassalen for Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen.
Brand
Louis Poulsen: PH 5, Artichoke, Panthella, AJ and the Science of Glare-Free Light
Louis Poulsen has produced functional lighting in Denmark since 1874. The company's design direction was set in 1924 by Poul Henningsen, whose PH system was built on one principle: the light source must never be directly visible. Every shade and reflector in the PH family exists to eliminate glare while delivering even, comfortable light. The collection extends to Arne Jacobsen's AJ series (1957), Verner Panton's Panthella (1971), and Oki Sato's NJP task lamps (2015).
